Cat-Themed NFT Play-to-Earn (P2E) Game Nyan Heroes Aims to Save 1 Billion Cats from Euthanasia in Animal Shelters Across the United States
Nyan Heroes is an upcoming NFT battle royal shooter style game built on the Solana blockchain that will allow players to compete against each other using NFTs depicting animated cats which are used to pilot mechanical robot NFTs in the game.
The US-based project has been in development since October and the game is slated for release in Q4 2022. Its first NFT drop is currently available for hodling and trading in markets such as Fractal.
According to data from Solana Art, Nyan Heroes is the fourth NFT project on Solana in terms of seven-day volume and market cap, at $ 279,000 and $ 18.2 million, respectively.
In an interview with TBEN, Nyan Heroes co-founder and Australian Wendy Huang described the companys charitable vision for the future, as well as an overview of the game to come.
Huang has been involved in crypto since 2016 and has also built a successful career as a creator of content ranging from vlogs to DIY videos, pranks and music and has amassed nearly 14 million subscribers on YouTube.
Huang said that she and her co-founder Max Fu, love for cats was a key factor behind linking animal-focused charity work to Nyan Heroes. She said they had an ambitious goal of saving 1 billion cats from euthanasia in animal shelters via charitable donations generated by a portion of the projects NFT sales.
Nyan Heroes revealed his first efforts in this area on December 24, when he announced a donation of $ 250,000 from the proceeds of his first NFT drop to the non-profit Best Friends Society. It was one of the proudest moments I have had on this project, she said.
The Best Friends Society provides a no-kill sanctuary for orphaned animals and also prevents the deaths of cats and dogs at shelters across the United States through its charitable work. The group estimates that its no kill movement has helped reduce the number of cat and dog deaths in animal shelters from 17 million per year to around 347,000.
Huang revealed that the game project will launch a DAO that will give its members the right to vote on the future allocation of Nyan Heroes donations.
Were going to create a young DAO hero. And part of those DAO responsibilities will be deciding where to donate funds, to which animal shelter, and to what causes in that particular area. she said.

Huang pointed out that a major sticking point for P2E blockchain games is sustainability over a long period of time. She said that many P2E games depend on a continuous flow of new users to stay profitable and suffer as players continually cash in and withdraw value from the game.
We dont know how many players will enter the economy. So we have to realize that building a game is not just about the game, but also the economic system and the sustainability of everything, she said.
Huang said that Nyan Heroes sustainability model relies on several factors, such as the introduction of a stablecoin into the game to reduce the volatility of its assets, rewards for wagering on NFTs, and a triple A gaming experience. similar to Fortnite which has historically attracted gamers who want to spend money on the game:
The way we approach it is to deliver a better game where users will actually want to play the game and inject value into the system to balance the players who enter the ecosystem for value.
We keep the in-game token stable so that the value of your in-game items doesnt get stuck and burn. And we think thats what players need to want to stick with a game. You dont want your in-game items to be worth $ 1,000 one day and then $ 10 the next, she added.
